Ye the figures in the bar chart were like 600,000 million so u had to add all of the numbers up divide by 4 and u had to put million on it

53750 is right but it should have million on end

well i put if fixed costs increase by 10% this mean there break even level must also increase, so their profit levels would be smaller than the costs so they have less profits so they get less money as revenue and they will have to increase selling price to break even. I was unsure.
